Chelsea thread 2018/19

i understand the FA have also been fined £390,000 ???? maybe holding information from fifa or letting this happen in the first place with knowledge of dodgy signings

this is big news for the premier league and its members and the top clubs will be under pressure to make this not happen to them, united arsenal city liverpool will not be innocent and clean of any wrong doing mark my words all clubs do it, and i remember city was under investigation for the same thing or maybe something like this ????

so the english FA are knowing of this and letting clubs get away with it when signing youth ?? makes you wonder what else they turn a blind eye to, and once the BBC took on fifa for being bent i said they will get back at the english FA someway and maybe this is just a small fine, but what next stopping EPL officials at the world cup hold on a minute ???

It really does put chelsea up shit creek. They keep Sarri (highly unlikely) then he really doesn't have the players to implement his style of play. What high profile new manager is going to want to come into that now knowing they can't sign anyone and romans habbit of sacking managers. They lose Hazard then they cant replace him. Only option i really see for them if this ban sticks is go for Lampard with a long term plan to start building a team around their youngsters like mount, hudson odi etc.

Two words.

John Terry (or Frank Lampard)

Desperate times. The Roman Empire ain't what it used to be.

What I would say, from a real estate point of view, there is no more attractive purchase out there for a super investor.

It'll cost best part of £2bn though, as Abramovich is also owed £950m by the club on top of the sale price.

Are we in any danger PB?

You're not really a big club until you have had one of these!

Barca, Real Madrid, Atletico and now Chelsea.

Obviously, if we get one, it will be judged entirely different.

We copped a British youth ban a couple years back?

Nowt to see here, move on boys! January transfer window is a waste of time anyway, so that's one meaningful window they'll miss, appeal so they'll get the next window, do long term deals in that window and hey presto, no harm done

 

[SWP's back]

We will be next, the crooks have found a new way to hamper teams they dislike.

To be fair, Barca & Madrid have also had bans.

 

[SWP's back]

So chelsea broke the rules 29 times out of the 100 that was investigated!? Is it right that its only one player we signed wrongfully? If so with chelsea getting 2 year ban for 29 how can they even ban us for 1 year? Should be 1 month.

Chelsea have a 1 year ban, not 2 bud.

Not going to be the only English team hit with a ban. Rumour has it that Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton, United and ourselves are also in trouble over this. We'll get the biggest ban of course.

Hopefully they all get a ban and we just get a fine. That will stir up a bit more hate

Abramovich is owed closer to £1.3bn iirc.

Probably do what Barcelona did, appeal it, spend huge in the summer window.
